Episode description
Who are we as a nation? What's important to us? And who do we want to be?
1A recently spent some time at the Aspen Ideas Festival where Gallup Research unveiled data that indicates most Americans can agree broadly on the answers to those queries, but differ on which ones are the most important.
We sit down and get into what values make an American, an American.
